Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Mattias Petersson Swedish horror is one of those tragic genres that never seems to hit the target. Sometimes i even wonder why they even try anymore. But once in a while, a very LONG while, a movie comes out that actually has quality to it. This is one of those.Ulrik Hansson (Ralph Carlsson) has trouble sleeping. One night he mixes his sleeping-pills with red wine. When he wakes up his family is gone without a trace, except a huge spot of blood on the sheets. Things point toward him being a sleepwalker and that this might have something to do with his family disappearing. Did he murder his family? The idea in this movie i felt was fairly original without being revolutionary. The technical quality of the movie is good and many scenes are well built up. The acting is also mostly OK. So is it scary? Well sometimes it comes close anyway. The general feeling of disarray is also pretty well built up. And the plot comes with a twist in the end which might not be THAT hard to guess, but that works pretty well.All in all this is not bad. I wish more Swedish horror movies could be like this. Focusing more on psychology and plot than on trying to create poor and boring shock-effects. I rate this 6/10.
Olle L This is the greates Swedish horror movie ever ! I agree with the previous speaker ! I've heard that USA will make a copy of the movie!I hope that they will make a movie like this!I was really scared when i saw it and liked it very much.The ending is surprising but also very good ! Ralf Carlsson is brilliant as tha many character that suffers from sleepwalking. He usually just plays nice dads in other movies.I am looking forward to the US-version!I'll give it 5 stars out of five !!!Olle P
simekl-8 I just saw the trailer about this movie, and i rented it yesterday. and i got to say...if you havent seen it, go see it. its a very genial and exciting thriller on a theme and thought i never seen a movie has been about. the main thought is that a guy is going in his sleep and he thinks he murderes in his sleep whitout knowing it when he is awake.very good movie.
disciple128 This is definitely one of the best Swedish horror films of the recent years. (Not that there are that many)I found it quite scary actually from time to time, and I was hooked as soon as the film started. Being the horror freak that I am, I was surprised to find out I actually could be scared by ANY movie, so I was almost religious at the end of this. It is so thrilling and exciting it won't let you breath until it's over! The actors were all great, and the whole style of the film the director has given it is stunning! The music also adds to the atmosphere in the most genius ways. I love this movie!
